NEW: The NDAA almost had right-to-repair language for the military supported by everyone from Hegseth to Warren in it. Alas! At least it doesn't have language mandating the military pay for subscription repair services in, which it could have. This is by @boone.bsky.social
The Military Almost Got the Right to Repair. Lawmakers Just Took It Away
The final language of the annual bill that funds the US military is in. It removes provisions that would have helped ensure servicemembers’ ability to fix their own equipment.

Hegseth is so dumb and incompetent. What a waste of privileged education.
He knows he messed up by ordering the murder of Venezuelan fishermen and bragging about it.
Curious how long Trump keeps this scandal-plagued abuser of women.

There’s no ambiguity anymore. Independent investigators revealed Hegseth endangered servicemembers’ lives.
How is this man still in a job he’s dangerously bad at?

It’s not “broken” if has never worked.
Better terms might be:

The GOP enacted civil service reform.
The GOP will destroy civil service reform.
The GOP is NOT the same party that it was. Keep this in mind when they claim Lincoln as their own

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene.
A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

@ms.now I hope you change your on-air scripts from the phrase, “textbook definition of” to “textbook example of” a war crime, because there are many other things that are the textbook definition of a war crime, but this is specifically the textbook example. Accuracy makes a better point.
